Summary Introduction
To determine: The application of work by Márquez and associates in agriculture.
Introduction: Endophytes are a type of fungi which live in the plant tissues and provide the plants with protection against the physical stressors such as heat and disease-causing pathogens. The endophytic fungi, called Curvularia protuberata, live within the aboveground tissues of the grass called Dichanthelium lanuginosum. The grass and the

The company has isolated two different fungal species, F. cattoriae and W. gravinius, both of which can grow at temperatures exceeding 95°C. The company has determined the following things about these fungal species (see attached image) By sequencing and examining their genomes, the biotech company hopes to understand why these species can live in extreme environments. However, the company only has the resources to sequence one genome, and would like your input as to which species should be sequenced and whether you believe a shotgun strategy will work in this case.arrow_forward

In a common eudicot pattern of development for the common bean in the figure, the radicle emerges from the seed (1), then begins to develop into a primary root that grows down into the soil. As this occurs, the hypocotyl emerges from the seed and bends into the shape of a hook (2). The bent hypocotyl lengthens and pulls the cotyledons upward (3). When the hypocotyl reaches the soil surface, exposure to light causes it to straighten (4). Primary leaves emerge from between the cotyledons and begin photosynthesis. The cotyledons typically undergo a period of photosynthesis before shriveling (5). Eventually, the cotyledons fall off the lengthening stem, and the young plant's new leaves produce all of its food.
